Re: Log 3-3
Methuselah waves his hands dismissively at the displayed gun. "Okay, hold the fireworks for just a bit. And let's not manhandle any more lockers until we've exhausted our options. There's something strange about the names on the stat sheet. Hank Theron? One of the contemporary home run kings was Hank Aaron. But Aaron shows up in the next name, and as the first name at that. So does 'Theron West' mean anything? Should we be going west, in some fashion?
"And then there's Sigmund Floyd. Sounds just like Sigmund Freud, if introduced by someone with a bad cold. I don't have any wild theories on that one either, but it's still odd.
"Finally, there's the choice of stats: right, third round, left, second round. Sounds suspiciously like a lock combination embedded within these stats. Especially considering that all the second round picks were southpaws, and vice versa. So 'right' plus 'first', and maybe one of the dates: 12, 14 or 2. Then 'left' plus 'second' gives you 29, 6, 21 or 1. Which leaves 'right' 'third' with 23, 30 or 18. So one of these locks, we spin to the right first, then to the left, and back to the right, one of these combinations.
"Of course, Damien could point out that some program just randomly put these names and stats together, but I'm not the one grasping his fingers in pain." And Methuselah's eyes shine in amusement, although he does refrain from smiling.
